Ah, it was actually a bohdran (just for the general folk effect), which is an Irish folk drum. It's an instrument I was already familiar with as my dad plays one. The particular samples I was using for it are some a friend gave me. He had some ethnic instrument samples for Reason that he converted for me. I'm afraid I can't remember the original name of the make though. In any case, I found it pretty useful for the composition.

Oh, and thanks for your support of the mod! Markus is away moving house I believe at the moment, but things should resume more steadily when he's around again. =)

No problem, I'm enjoying what little conversation there is at the moment. I thought that someone should advertise, but then again, I'd rather a few that know what they're doing over many that just fill up the forums with crap. Heh.

Heilza to all the new people and others as well \o .Nice to see few new people lurking around these corners

Not going to do much of any update information here now, but justcame to inform that we are STILL - yes, still waiting for our internetto be installed on our apartment. It'll take maybe few more weeks untill weget them running there, but worry not, for it'll be a blast of information whenwe get at that point, I assure you .

Much has been accomplished during my absence and things are looking reallygood. I am sure our magnificent composers are flaming out new scores all the time,of which even I am not avare of .

Just finished a new composition yesterday, it's called "Shape of the Sky". It uses a much more minimalistic form than any of the others I've written so far, and makes use of some new samples - some of which I made myself, including the staccato violins, viola and some of the drums =)

Anyhow, I got some bad news, as my 3D-card has signed itself off, I can't concretely continue the module, but in two weeksI will get money and purchase new one and continue with a rage of a monkey to work the module to the very extent of it!At the moment I am making plot, character and dialog design all together, hoping to achieve the final outcome of all the content inPart 1 and how they all evolve around the story!

When I got all updates ready, I will totally blast out a huge post here and on other sites with new screens, graphics, music, art, novel excerpts and what not!! So wait for some serious action ahead .

That's all for now, hopefully this rouses up some interest even more around all communities and awesome people in them, especiallyhere!

Hail and well met everyone! It's time for some refreshingly great news, for I have been working hard with an upcoming ALPHA-Test for The Moonlight Path adventure! Though this ALPHA will be a separate story and has little reference to the actual TMP adventure ahead, it will give some insight of the adventure to come, how NPCs, quests, areas, etc. work. You might consider this more as a Tech-demo rather than a test. ALPHA will consist of two major City Areas, several indoor areas, voiceacting, original music by our composers, quests and stuff like that in a very atmospheric, lush and vivid City scenery.

I cannot give out any schedule as of when the ALPHA would be released, but if things go as planned, it shouldn't be too far away from release! It is all mostly dependant on our scriptor rather than on anything else.

Newsletter issue #20 will be soon sent forth and announced with a massive update coming along, as promised earlier, so more content should be shoving up. Just need to organize and think carefully what to release and all that.

”...Underneath the ice, something was moving; shades and figures, but he didn't know as to what they were. Some of the smaller ponds were not frozen and he could gaze through the crystal clear water easily. But still, beneath the waters surface, something stirred...in agony.

...he gazed deeper within the pond, reaching his hand carefully towards the moving shades underneath. Soon, a small child's figure appeared from the depths and rose towards the now appalled man. Her skin, it seemed, was pale and clothes torn so that she was almost naked. Several scars and stab-wounds were evident on the poor girl's desecrated, even eviscerated body. He also noticed that her facial aspects were horrendous and that they shifted between natural and unreal.

...Whatever became the gruesome fate of these children, this was no way to leave this world. A shrieking wail suddenly erupted in a chorus of torment from beneath the waters, forcing the man fall back in terror...”

Darker, more brutal, violent and ridden with blood!A new course of action has been taken with The Moonlight Path ALPHA module and the more violent side of the adventure is brought alive for all to see and feel! Oppressive mood and twisted sounds echoes throughout the damp and dismal halls that are filled with mutilated bodies of children and women alike, burnt corpses and hanged men! It is time to unleash the beast that has been in deep slumber for too long a time...

New content and updates:* New profile page outlook* 5 Wallpapers uploaded in 1920x1200 resolution* 2 new music samples by Adam and Marius* 4 New Interior Design screen shots* Voice acting sample "Lament of Boromir" by Domien

It's been a long while since any updates occurred here, so it's time to give you something new to feast on with. It's been a hard time for me struggling with the ALPHA stage, for I did encounter new problems with my computer and it messed the whole Toolset and Neverwinter Nights both totally,so I had to make many things again.

But now that I have won my battles, it's time to get back into the furious vortex of design work for the module and forging the ALPHA stage into a solid piece. We still do lack a coder/script maker, so if anyone has any idea for a valid person to hop in and make the world of Moonlight Path alive, feel free to tell him about it and direct him/her towards me! Otherwise everything is going well both for the design and actual building of the module itself.

I have gotten help from fellow Finnish friends and together it's much easier to think and create thing rather than through the internet. There will be much to be done still, but we are hard working and whipping ourselves towards the solid outcome.

More updates coming along this week, keep a vigilant eye open and wish us luck with our massive endeavor!

“….and he would eventually walk through these halls; the Halls of Sin....”"...where even Angels feared to tread.."

Hello and well met, for it's been AGES long since I last made my way here!As always, I forget this place, but this was such a milestone for the sake of my project, so I hadto force myself to remember and return back here with plentiful news regarding The Moonlight Path storythat indeed has gone into ALPHA-stage production!

It will be an independent story, but has vital relevance to TMP story and players will learn much of what is yet to come.I will give you another massive update soon enough, hopefully people are still alive in here to see the updates!
